About this property

Dock Daze | Luxury Rental | Great Views & Lot | 3-night min

Look no further—you’ve found the perfect luxury lake house--Dock Daze! This beautiful & spacious lakefront home is located on the Southeast side of Lake Gaston, less than 10 minutes from the town of Littleton--grocery, gas, restaurants. We offer a  3-night minimum stay to allow optimal flexibility for your schedule (with the exception of holidays).  The upscale waterfront neighborhood is private & peaceful for long leisurely walks. A long country driveway will lead you to the pristine, well-manicured home and sets the tone for your eagerly anticipated lake getaway.  The front yard (road side) is HUGE and perfect for frisbees, yard games for large numbers of people or group/team play!

Upon entering Dock Daze, you are welcomed by an open floor plan, featuring cathedral ceilings and a magnificent wall of windows that showcase beautiful lake vistas and surrounding nature. The fabulous kitchen will instantly grab your attention!  A chef's dream--preparing the perfect meal while taking in whimsical water views and surrounding nature! Stocked with almost everything you need to feed a small army, the kitchen is accented by maple cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances & an incredible island bar!  A great gathering place for the entire crowd to eat, drink and be merry--Bon Appetit! Ample seating for both indoor and outdoor dining. Access the oversized deck just off the kitchen-dining-living area with comfort and relaxtion in mind--a wonderful place for your morning coffee or sunset cocktail. A gas grill is conveniently provided on the deck for your backyard barbecue fun!  

Rainy days=Fun days! The walk-out basement is the ultimate hang-out place; fully outfitted with everything you need for entertainment!  You'll find ping-pong, foosball, a card table, TV lounge, board games and even a popcorn machine for movie night!

The lush, FLAT backyard is the perfect playground for yard games like corn hole, badminton, soccer, etc.  A short and easy walk takes you to the covered boathouse and dock area. We're located on a HUGE protected waterfront cove with great water depth that will accommodate a boat of any size! The boathouse features trex decking, a covered lounge area and storage room w/ bar serving window. A mini-fridge, table & chairs make it convenient to enjoy countless hours of fun in the sun fishing, swimming, floating, kayaking or boating.  Limited chairs and kayaks are provided for your enjoyment!

At the end of the day, gather around the fire pit for endless conversations, laughs and....marshmallows!

Bringing or renting a boat? Cleats are provided to tie off your own boat, jet ski or a rental (The boat slip is for owner use only). You will need to bring your own bumpers and lines to secure your watercraft. We ask that you bring enough life jackets to enjoy the fun and ensure proper sizing for your particular crew.

To get you started...
The bathrooms are stocked with courtesy soaps and shampoos designed for quick "off the shelf" use.  Each bathroom has a roll of septic-friendly toilet tissue as a starter. You are encouraged to bring whatever you feel you might need beyond the courtesy items provided.

The kitchens are stocked with one roll of paper towels, one trash bag for the kitchen trashcan, trial-size dish soap, two dishwasher pods and 1 sponge.  You are encouraged to bring whatever you feel you might need beyond the courtesy items provided.

A few more tid-bits...  :)
1.  Trained service animals are welcome!  Otherwise, we have a strict "no pets" policy.  We can help arrange lodging for your pets (as long as they are up to date on shot records which must be provided) at a local boarding facility during your stay, if you'd like; just give us a call...way in advance as they fill up fast!

2.  The house, like 99% of all lake homes on Lake Gaston, uses a septic system.  This system is a finely balanced biological system.  Please help us keep it working flawlessly by flushing ONLY toilet paper.  Renters are responsible for any damage caused by misuse.

3.  Bow-Riders and deep draft Wake Board boats need to check their Hummingbirds to ensure adequate depth in all coves.  Pontoons should have no issues and everyone is welcome to tie off at the dock with rental boats.(make sure to bring your bumpers!).

4.  Culverts & Bridges:  Be sure to lower your bimini top when going under bridges or through culverts.  Appearances can be deceiving!

5. Security Camera Disclosure: We take your privacy very seriously.  However, this home is monitored by exterior security cameras in the following locations: Doorbell  camera on the front of the house overlooking driveway & parking

Great property, location and overall great vacation

Great property… perfect for our extended family vacation. We loved the easy access to the lake and boat house…gentle slope to the water and not a long walk making it easy for our grandkids. The house had everything we needed and then some! Would definitely rent again.

Great Location Lake House

This home was located on a great little area of the lake that wasn't too busy for playing off the dock but great access to open areas of the lake for power boating, and jet skiing. Good home for a family of all ages.

Great Lake placement

This house was very well stocked with all kitchen needs, towels and linens provided which is always helpful. Food Lion and Piggly Wiggly were pretty close and where this house sits on the lake was great. I would suggest some more comfortable outside furniture though.

Great Vacation Property

The property and home were both fantastic for our family vacation. Very well equipped with everything you need. We enjoyed our vacation and would definitely book this home again. One word of caution - the nightly rental rate is listed as $XXX per night but actually is 1.65 times that per night when you add Additional Charges, Service Fees and Taxes.

Overall the property was amazing.

Overall the property was amazing. The only issue we had was with the swim ladder going from the lake onto the dock. It folds and is rusty with sharp edges, right where someone would grab. I think it’s something the owners should look into fixing because it seems someone could pretty easily injure their hand getting out. I would also like it if the chains on the doors that go outside were high enough so the doors could be childproof. Seemed a little pointless to have them low enough for my 2 year old to pull out. That aside, I would still stay there again as the layout was perfect and the property was clean and well maintained. Booking was easy and there was always email communication which was nice!
